Join us for One World Night at Prospect celebrating culture and our school’s diversity! Students and their families are invited to showcase a culture or country of heritage or special interest at our evening open house.

This year’s theme is "Sports around the World!"

When: Thursday February 8th, 6:00 – 7:30 pm 
Where: Prospect School  
Registration for showcase participants opens Thursday, December 22nd. 

The holidays are a great opportunity to meet with the family, talk about your heritage and cultural background. Here are some ideas to get you and your student brainstorming on how to showcase the culture or country of your choice:

Informative display board
Display of touchable objects such as souvenirs, coins, toys, textiles, books, art, etc.

Teach a game or host a craft at your station
Bring food in sample sizes

This event is powered by the participation of Prospect students and their families and we look forward to your involvement!

All Prospect families are welcome to come enjoy the activities, displays, music and food sampling presented.
